Private cars play a very important part in people’s life. They bring people convenience, joy or a new lifestyle. However, there are also problems to private cars. Firstly, with the rapidly increase of private cars, parking became a big headache. Another problem is the traffic. We often hear news of traffic jams, which accounts for many serious accidents. The worst thing is how the poisonous gases they give off polluting the air and do great harm to people’s healthy. I think we should use cars only when is necessary. For an example, instead of driving, we can walk, ride bicycles or take the bus to work.

The 4-year-old boy was mentally disabled, unable to speak in complete sentences and unable to play with other children because of his violent fits(发作) of hitting and biting.
The decision facing one Brooklyn jury(陪审团)was how much a landlord should pay in damages to the boy — named “G.M.M.” in court documents — after an investigation showed he had been living in an apartment illegally coated with lead paint.
Attorneys(律师) representing G.M.M. said $3.4 million was the right number, arguing that the boy would have had a bright career ahead of him; both of his parents had graduated from college and his mother received a master’s degree. But the landlord’s defense put the figure at less than half that — $1.5 million. Attorney Roger Archibald noted that because the boy was Hispanic, G.M.M. was unlikely to attain the advanced education that would provide to such a large income.
The 4-year-old’s case is a rare public look at one corner of the American legal system that explicitly uses race and gender to determine how much victims or their families should receive in compensation(赔偿) when they are seriously injured or killed.
As a result, white and male victims often receive larger awards than people of color and women in similar cases. These differences largely derive from projections of how much more money individuals would have earned over their lifetimes had they not been injured — projections that take into account average earnings and employment levels by race and gender.
1.What is the passage mainly about?
A. Description of the boy’s damage.
B. Situation of the boy’s family.
C. Compensation for the boy’s damage.
D. Advantages of American legal system.
2.What can we conclude from the passage?
A. The boy’s illness resulted from the lead paint of the apartment.
B. The compensation mainly depends on the costs for treatment.
C. The boy would earn a lot of money without the injury.
D. The jury is in favor of the G.M.M attorneys in the boy’s case.
3.What factors seem to affect the jury’s decision?
A. Gender and education.
B. Race and gender.
C. Race and education.
D. Social status and education.
4.What does the author feel about the boy’s case?
A. Angry.B. Satisfied.C. Unjust.D. Optimistic.

Are you addicted to computer games? Do you stay up all night playing them? Do you feel happy after you play computer games?
There’s no doubt that the excitement and appealing of games these days makes them hard to put down. We are attracted by the choice when it comes to gaming: You can role play—creating your own fantasy characters and stories, giving you a chance to step out of everyday life into an imaginary world. And there are shooting games where you can let out your anger and depression in violent situations where you kill people with guns. You can get excited from the games.
However, can these kinds of games really be fun and can being absorbed in virtual reality be good for us? Should we worry about their effects on our health? Popular games like Grand Theft Auto have been blamed for everything from falling results at school to causing acts of extreme violence. Internet safety adviser, Alan MacKenzie, thinks “any people understandably will just think that a game is just a game and not realizing the exact content that’s in there”. He gives an example of the violence, which he says is “wholly inappropriate for anybody, not to mention children.”
Others will argue that gaming is a harmless form of entertainment. There is evidence that playing video games could actually be good for us. Some games like Game of Thrones and World of Warcraft are educational and using games certainly can help children learn good qualities. Studies have also shown that the skills used in playing games can cause growth in certain areas of the brain, the ability to think in 3D and even improve our eyesight.
Video game players are also no longer just simple creatures. For some, gaming is having a positive effect on their social lives with games like Halo and World of Warcraft often being played in groups. When your group works together to win the game, your sense of achievement is higher than when winning by yourself.
So every coin has two sides. It seems today, gaming isn’t just for game fans and if used in a proper way, we can all take part. If video games have two sides, what side do you stand by?
1.The writer used a lot of questions at the beginning to ________.
A. show his worries about the effect on health
B. lead into the topic of the passage
C. ask the reader for their own opinions about games
D. doubt the advantage of playing computer games
2.Paragraph 3 mainly talks about ________.
A. the contents of the game are complex
B. games contain extreme violence
C. popular games lead to students’ falling results at school
D. gaming is a harmful form of entertainment
3.According to the passage, which of the following shows the good influence on social lives?
A. Han Meimei passed the exam after playing the games.
B. Li Hua leant many English words from playing games.
C. Sunyan worked well with his teammates.
D. Yang Li let out his anger and expressions.
4.In Paragraph 4, the author supports his idea ________.
A. by giving some examples
B. with descriptive words
C. by providing some numbers
D. with some research results

阅读短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
Many kids and teenagers have cell phones in their hands. However, is it really necessary for them to have phones at school? Here are the pros and cons.
Pros
They can get in touch when necessary. The main benefit of having a phone is that your children can get in touch with you whenever they need to. 1. They can call the emergency services if necessary. If your children are in immediate danger, they can use their phones to call not only you but the emergency services. This is of great benefit and could potentially save your children’s lives.
2. As long as your children remember to do this , their phones won’t cause distraction(分心) in class. Giving them a standard instead of a smart-phone will also reduce the risk of distraction.
Cons
The latest smart-phones can almost double as a computer. It means they offer far more of a distraction to kids than they used to. 3. All these characteristics could disturb your children’s concentration (注意力) if they play with them in class.
Cellphones could interrupt lessons. Many children, even though they are asked to do so, forget to turn off their phones during lessons and their phones may make sounds. 4. Besides the distraction problem, cellphones can also be used to look up answers on the Internet. 5. The possibility of children having access to these during exams could be too attractive for them not to take advantage of.
A. Cellphones can be turned off or put on mute.
B. Children use ordinary phones instead of smart-phones.
C. This allows you to feel they are safe and easy to reach.
D. Without cellphones, campus life would be less colorful.
E. They have some other functions — a calculator and the ability to save notes.
F. This not only annoys other pupils, but also prevents them from learning well.
G. Nowadays, children can not only text and make calls with their phones, but also play games, surf the Internet and listen to music.
